Passionate Political Writers Wanted to Join Our Team

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY: Writers Wanted!

Great writers wanted now! Democracy Chronicles is the collective product of our international network of over 100 democracy authors, artists, activists, and other contributors. We are looking for people to join our team and submit original content, writing or political artwork to enhance our website about democracy. We are hoping to find writers who can produce engaging opinion writing on a regular basis.

This is unpaid/volunteer but you will be surprised how fun and easy our setup is for you. The setup is: you can work from home and send your articles by email to be ​evaluated by our editorial board. We are located in New York City but we encourage international applicants who can communicate (in English) online. We currently have a core group of contributors from places as far apart as New York, Taiwan, Sweden and Somalia.

WHAT YOU WRITE

The range of subjects our writers cover is varied as you can see by looking at our front page. We encourage all of our writers to write about the subjects they are passionate about, with the general rule being that the subject relates to democracy, elections or politics. On the left, right, or whatever, we want our writers to have their own perspective on the world. Diversity of opinion is what our writing team is hoping for. Talk about your passion and spread your message.

Our preferred word limit is roughly 800 words​ and submissions should of publishable quality and entirely your own work. We are looking for original ideas and thinking, not just regurgitation of current media stories.

WHAT YOU GET

​Publishing with us gives you an ever-growing international and domestic readership.​ We aggressively promote the work of our writing team and all of your articles are promoted on our website, our social media, our fan newsletter and across the web. Every writer on DC has their own archive of articles that includes their ​short ​biography​,​ headshot, and description.

We are also more than happy to do all we can to help you get ahead as a writer, even helping you apply to other positions. Once you are an established DC writer, we help you with any recommendation letters, phone call recommendations, and school/business applications. Also if you want to apply to your university for school credit for your work at DC, we are more than happy to help! Getting professional advice and career help from a network of like-minded supporters is part and parcel of being on the DC team​.​

GAINING EXPERIENCE

Beyond submitting writing or political artwork regularly we encourage everyone to get as involved with the website as possible. Do you have additional experience that can benefit our website? Social media, we​b development, political artwork or outreach experience perhaps? Let us know.

DC AUTHORS

Dairy farming is the perfect microcosm for all the ways big money and bad policy is destroying local control of our food supply, devastating rural economies and filling us up with chemically enhanced products.

We, the voters, are frustrated! Until this reform occurs, the people who give the biggest campaign contributions can rather easily pass the corrupt laws they want. And they can continue to block the solutions that most voters want.

Ethnic tribalism and the poison of religion with its magical fairy tales are the weak links where malevolent actors like Russia can manipulate and damage democracy – even in a modern European context like Serbia.

I love Bernie Sanders. I also have a soft spot for Elizabeth Warren. I want them both and I want them both now. They would be better than the dynamic duo, power couple or gruesome twosome. They would be Elizabeth and Bernie!

The middle class and the poor need the tax breaks, not the Oligarchs at the top. There are property taxes, income taxes, alcohol taxes, license plate taxes, utility taxes, tobacco taxes, gasoline taxes and more.
